I have visited the Acropolis many times, since I am an Athenian. In the 70's, the restoration works had not started yet and you could even visit the interior of the Parthenon. I consider myself lucky to have been able to stand inside the Parthenon. I was visiting the Acropolis with my school and I had a history teacher, who had a lot of knowledge about the architecture of the Parthenon and showed us up close, the way the columns have been created, so that they give the feeling of straightness. Each column is unique and that is why the reconstruction works take many years, because it is a very difficult puzzle, with pieces that take time and effort to put in place. You can see the whitest spots on the columns, which were created some years ago, from selected Pentelic marble and fit perfectly with each column.
I visited back in June. Athens will captivate your heart. It's arguably the most beautiful city in the world. Love from Istanbul to the beautiful people of Greece.
@@ProWalks I had the chance to explore it for two weeks; even managed to make a short escapade to Nafplio. It’s a 2 hour drive in the bus. It is believed to be the most beautiful Greek city. It was magic. Judging from the video, you’ve most certainly explored Plaka and Apostolou Pavlou below the eastern slopes of the Acropolis Hill which is the heart of old Athens. Albeit touristy, it’s still a delightful place to walk around and wander through the narrow lanes, the stairs and admire the pastel-colored houses. Adrianou Street which separates Plaka from Monastiraki, has the best shops. I stayed in a fancy hostel in Psyrri and the prices were good. Situated at a walking distance from the flea market in Monastiraki, Psyrri is where you’ll find young Athenians, artists and musicians, graffiti, trendy cafes and bars; it has a hipsterish vibe but it’s pretty well gentrified with a very lively nightlife, hookah bars and live music venues. Kolonaki is where Athenian bourgeousie and the ‘nouveau riche’ live, shop and dine. Its proximity to the Parliament building makes a prime real estate area for politicians and business men. Prime restaurants and chic cafes and bars line the streets and so many museums to visit. Ermou is a long 1.5km pedestrian shopping street, it’s where the locals do their basic shopping. Athens is big. One visit will not do her justice. Hey, your videos are amazing and the caption idea is original! Thank you for the hard work. I watch them not only to explore new places, but also to reconnect with all the places I’ve been to and reminisce on the beautiful memories. Best,
I went to the Parthenon and Acropolis in 1982. I was much too young back then to really appreciate it but have great memories and pictures to look back at. great video thank you
My wife and I visited Greece in 2019 and we enjoyed visiting those tourists spots and their food . Athens is a beautiful city full of historical places to visit most especially the Acropolis and it’s museum👍
Just want to say thankyou on behalf of those disabled people that i know and also prob elderly and ones who cannot go or afford these tours etc.. just fantastic. ❤
This is a masterpiece production. My words can't describe this. I like the drone intro and map. I went back after watching and looked at drone intro and map again just to understand tour better. I'm a history buff and it was a review of some of the ancient history of Europe from the historical facts. This tour was really appreciated.
Hi Esther, you are very welcome. Glad you enjoyed it. I have a lot more drone footage and pics. I could maybe get something posted up to show a bit more.
@@ProWalks yeah, i didn’t have much of a choice. I had to take it in order for me to attend the high school that i did, and not the one i was supposed to go to! 40+ years later all i remember are three phrases, and the different types of columns the Romans used in their building!!😂😂😂
I love this video, just love it..thank you so much, Greece is on my list as soon as things get even better, Isaac you have no idea how much I appreciate this video, stay safe and thank you again for bringing us the joy of walking us through Acropolis,...Dave from Toronto.
Hey Dave, How goes it? Glad you enjoyed this one. I have several more Greece videos to post up. I wish I could work faster..but it is what it is. Things are going well here. Next up is an Otranto walking tour.
I'm not sure if I can ever visit these places, but looking at these videos makes me feel that I'm there...so thank you very much for all of your videos.
شكرا لك على هذا الفيديو الجميل ,جعلتنا نتشوق لزيارة هذا البلد الجميل ايضا اشكر لك طريقتك في التجول والتصوير كنت حريصا على احترام الطريق والاماكن مع وجود شرح يوضح تاريخ المواقع الاثرية . انا نايف من الاردن
Went there 50 years ago as a teenager with my family. Back then you could walk around inside the Parthenon. Nothing was really roped off. Crazy to think that's the way it used to be. You didn't have the huge crowds back then though.
Yeah, I imagine would have been nice to freely walk around like that. That is why I like visiting the Amphitheater in Capua. Noone is there and you are free to wander around.
I last visited this place with my family in 1976.. I hope i will get another chance one day to show my own kids.. however this is an excellent tour walk and its very appreciated !
Prowalk tours, the best walking videos on RUclips and without this channel would of made being stuck inside unbearable. I went to more places with this channel than I will in real life. Thank you.
There is something sublimely tranquil about the remoteness of the Acropolis not unlike a seaside location where one looks out into the vastness of an eternal landscape as though it were an ocean to be sailed and voyaged. Obviously built during a time of global peace where one did not feel the threat of being attacked while located on a promontory but instead now felt safe to explore from.
thank you so much for this tour. i had such a visceral feeling as we walked up toward toward the Parthenon. Thank you for all of your tour videos. i appreciate the info on CC. 🌸
I can't believe I missed this until now! But, I have an excuse. Three weeks ago I fell in love and my attention has been elsewhere. You rock, dude. You rock.
I just want to say this was absolutely BRILLIANT!! My partner and I went to Athens last year and it has always been a dream of mine to visit the Acropolis (for 40yrs) but my arthritis prevented me from being able to climb up to it and walk around, which was a huge disappointment. My partner did a great job of taking photos up there for me, but this video, your video, helped me to understand the layout and it really felt as though I was walking beside you. Thank you so much. And your camera work is amazing!! xx
Walking in Acropolis, is the one spot all the big names you know from Greece walked right there. Alexander the Great, the Philosophers and Scientists, Leonidas, Themistocles and countless others. Same for Delphi, where Pythia said: "The wooden wall alone, will stand" before the second Persian invasion and thus the Greeks ( Themistocles ) deciphered it as "Ships" and Greeks have been saved. Indescribable goosebumps. Meanwhile, you never realize how big the Parthenon actually is unless you come face to face.
I just discovered this site and it really is super. Brings back a lot of memories and adds useful descriptions of the various sites. Well done, I will be looking forward to more guided tours. Keep up the good work and thanks again.
Thanks. I visited Athens but skipped acropolis because if was so crowded and ticket prices were too high (for me. 30€ for a "combination ticket"). It's better to visit it in winter when it's not that crowded and tickets are half price.
Thank you for I think one of your best videos today. Absolutely wonderful. I must admit I was stunned to see a rail line so close to ancient ruins but it appears maybe to be an 1895 work originally and certainly helped with the 2004 Olympics as you pointed out. Thank you again. Alan
At 39:30 in the close captions you write that Elgin "took SOME marbles BACK to Britain" First he didn't took some. He STOLE a LOT. Actually a whole wing of the British Stolen World's Heritage euphemistic called museum presents the sculptures Elgin stole for his private collection, after he granded a permit from the Turks who didn't care less about those stone ruins. He paid them to give him their permission. After some time and because the amount of the marbles was huge even for a gangster like him to maintain privately, he arranged the transfer to British Museum of Stolen Items. And he got back the money he gave to the Turks. Secondly he didn't took the marbles BACK to Britain as they were there at the first place. He took them TO Britain, not back to Britain. Only because of this I have to Thumb Down your otherwise excellent video.
Hey, I updated the captions. What I meant to say was that he took the marble back with him to Britain..not back to Britain. Anyway, I understand that it was poorly written and could be offensive. Glad you enjoyed the video otherwise.
@@ProWalks yes the video was marvelous honestly. And now you have updated the captions by adding two words, correctly describing his misserable act of stealing every sculpture representing figures of humans or animals, leaving marbles with geometrical shapes, you are my best friend. Will you sing the petition for their return ? We have a wonderful Acropolis Museum in Athens with emply seats for all stolen items, waiting ......
Спасибо за интересную и познавательную экскурсию по античным Афинам! Многое увидела первый раз а субтитры на русском языке добавили информации о истории Афин.
Muy bella la restauracion de la Stoá de Atalo. Lo mismo no se puede dessir de la Stoá Poikile y de los murales de Polignoto, Mícon y Paneno. Marvillosa la iglesia Ortodoxa.
16:58 hello to the video maker... harpies´screams? 17:55... I´ll never forget that entrance when I saw it 2 years ago face to face 19:16... and this one as well 21:21...
The architecture and Panorama the view really look like in Israel...💙 Roman 2:10 But glory, honor and peace to everyone who works what is good to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
Mate, your video was really good and was much appreciated. But you have to understand that these are the *Parthenon Marbles* (not the Elgin marbles) and the fact that lord Elgin stole them (he didnt took them _"back to Britain")_ he then *sold* them to the British Museum *which* ever since refuses to return them, it's a major international cultural issue, with *UNESCO* itself leading the way for the repatriation of these (I repeat stolen) artifacts. It is also a matter of national pride for the Greeks, who are not really fond of these artifacts being called after the one who *ripped them off* using sledgehammers and steel levers detached them from the building and threw them down from 10 meters height in order to pack them, as well as of the fact that the Brittish Museum, offends the history of these marbles by refusing to even discuss this matter and by thus keeping them. An additional information you're probably not aware of: during the Greek War for Independence, the Greeks sieged Athens. The ottomans got fortified in the Acropolis, which they used as gunpowder depot. The Greeks shot no bullet against the Ottomans considering the damage the gunpowder could do to the building. Finally, these guys in the British Museum, some decades ago and *unlike all maintenance methods used internationally* during this period, they actually *brushed* the marbles using *bronze* brushes in order to ...clean them, they keep them all these years in a room with the water dripping from the roof for decades, besides using this same room for private receptions; they make private parties there, I suppose without a dj playing Detroit Techno, but *still,* parties. So please, be kind enough to correct the subtitles in order to propose the truth: these are the Parthenon Marbles.
Been there, stood where Hitler and Napoleon stood. Also at the foot of the Acropolis mound near Americans street is the speaker platform where one of the apostles (Paul I think) gave lectures, stood there also.
